Unable to run on Node.js 17.9.0/18.2.0

[itegulov]

If you install node 17.9.0/18.2.0 (using nvm or through other means) and run yarn test in the workspaces-js root directory all tests will fail with the following error:

Rejected promise returned by test. Reason:

Error (TypedError)

The last Node.js that works for me is 16.15.0

This also has memory leakage as a side effect:

To replicate: use Node v18.6, attempt to run workspaces-js tests for https://github.com/near-examples/FT

I'm encountering a similar issue when trying to run integration tests from create-near-app.

• Node 18.9.1 will never complete, instead starts accumulating memory usage until it gets killed.
• Node 16.17.1 works without issue

Sample code that results in a kill Node 18:

import anyTest, { TestFn } from 'ava';
import * as path from "path";

const test = anyTest as TestFn<{
  worker: Worker;
  accounts: Record<string, NearAccount>;
}>;

test( "create sub-account", async (t) => {
  const worker = await Worker.init();
  const root = worker.rootAccount;
  // Hangs on this line w/ Node 18. Also hangs on deploy contract and others.
  const contract = await root.createSubAccount("test-account");
  t.context.worker = worker;
  t.context.accounts = { root, contract };
});

This bug turns out to be due to an issue with node name resolution in Node18. I'll push a PR which addresses it.

@volovyks @ailisp we have come across this same issue today using node 19.8.0.

This issue is affecting at least the example repos referenced by https://docs.near.org/develop/quickstart-guide , whose integration tests uses workspaces-js

• https://github.com/near-examples/hello-near-rust
• https://github.com/near-examples/counter-rust
• https://github.com/near-examples/donation-rust
• https://github.com/near/create-near-app/blob/master/templates/integration-tests/js-tests/src/main.ava.ts

Exact line it's getting stuck is:

• https://github.com/near-examples/hello-near-rust/blob/399339be337a461af0d99339be39483c651dac64/integration-tests/src/main.ava.ts#L15

For those who are new to node.js/ javascript/typescript, a temporary workaround is to downgrade node:

First, install nvm

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.0/install.sh | bash
export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm" 
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh"
nvm --version # Verify installation

Then, downgrade node

nvm install v16.17.1
nvm use v16.17.1

Now, integration tests will run fine with downgraded node.

git clone https://github.com/near-examples/hello-near-rust
cd  hello-near-rust
npm install
npm run test:integration
